yes it does, in the aggregate. because the people who approve only X or only Y will statistically have a pretty similar X-vs-Y preference as all other voters (who approved both or neither).
and because approval voting uses the preferences it does have more accurately than IRV, it ends up being much more accurate, as measured by voter satisfaction efficiency simulations.
